Anyone make a router jig for a woodmizer?

[jovol]

I'd like to make a jig to mount a router to the sawhead of my LT-50. Would be convenient for flattening the occasional slab I'm working on, or for doing some shiplap siding on some sheds I'm going to build. Anyone implemented this before?

What model woodmizer?  Does it have a single rail with a cantilever head?  Or double rails?

Either way it should be possible but the cantilever head would make it much harder.

Never done it but been wanting to a long time! You should tackle it with plenty of photos =)

I built one for my mill. Just used square and rectangle aluminum  extrusion and welded up the router base trolley. If posting pics wasnt so difficult, id share them. But my router carriage rolls down the same tracks my mill carriage does, spans the 72" across the mill base and the router trolley rolls across the rectangle extrusion, the width of the mill base. I can adjust the height from 3" above the log bunks, to 12" above, and can router a 72" wide x 16' long slab.

Just throwing this out there, but y'all do know that WM makes a head to go on an LT15 rails, right? It's a new product, the head setup looks like the one on the slabmizer and I think they are running a special on it now.

I built a planer sled to go on my lt15 wide.

So, maybe a little off, but I built my mill - and in order to do that the way I wanted I built a CNC plasma cutting table.  I have since fitted a router head to the plasma table, in place of the torch.  I built the mill using the same rail dimensions so I could, theoretically, put the router head on the plasma table gantry and install that onto the sawmill.  And then transform logs or cants with carved designs.
